You are all my wings...

He patted Terena's head and said:

"This is also what I want to tell you: the physical strain of excessive mental exertion is just as intangible as mental exertion, so remember to cultivate good habits."

……

Tonight, Leon was supposed to do a divination for Langley, but he was in a hurry to get home last night (after all, he had to go to Iris's place), so he took Terena back to his own house first to get the more complicated divination tools.

He originally carried with him some props for deception, but considering that the divination he was about to perform was about a past life he didn't know, he decided to go all out this time and complete a complicated ritual to show Langley, so that he could completely fool her first.

Then, he asked Langley to try writing down those divinely inspired syllables, hoping he might be able to decipher some of them.

However, just as he brought Therena back to a spot not far from Colt Street, an accident occurred.

Several enormous fireballs fell from the sky and landed in the middle of the street.

In the middle of the street were several adventurers dressed as warriors, some wielding swords to slash at fireballs, others dodging them quickly.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of explosions pierced through countless small houses along the street, blasting countless pieces of broken walls and wood. The shockwave swept in all directions, and passersby covered their heads and fled.

"My God, the Western soldiers are fighting with our native adventurers."

"These guys are really courting death, daring to make a move in the capital."

Some onlookers started complaining from a distance.

Lyon's eyes narrowed as he spotted a strange yet familiar figure, a cat perched lightly on the rooftop beside him, quietly observing the adventurers' battle on the street.

He was tall and slender, with long arms supporting him on the roof. Judging from his clothing style, he was clearly from Xibang. His shoes had three-colored feather patterns, his dark trousers were loose, and his emerald green top was tight and fitted.

As for that face, its features were well-proportioned and possessed a wild beauty. On its head were a pair of winding, colorful horns, which, when reflected in the moonlight, resembled polished gemstones.

It turns out to be Camille, the second female lead in the third part, who possesses ancestral dragon bloodline.

Terena noticed Leon's gaze and hugged his small hand tighter:

"You've taken a fancy to that pretty woman?"

"No, I'm just looking around."

Lyon was being hypocritical.

However, he does not have any plans to contact Camille for the time being, as his schedule has been too full lately and he has no time to spare.

Camille's personality is also quite difficult to handle. Although she is also very innocent, it is estimated that once the relationship is good, her behavior will be bolder, wilder, more aggressive, and more possessive than Ophie Marceau's.

Moreover, her future death crisis is not closely related to the present, and she has no intention of forcibly changing her fate, so she doesn't plan to provoke anyone.

Fortunately, Lyon's house was a bit further away and wasn't affected by the adventurers' battle. Just as he was preparing to retreat, a light voice suddenly came from not far away—

"Huh, what a coincidence to run into someone like you here, Leon Belron."

The sound was very soft, and only his current agility could hear it.

Moreover, this voice wasn't Camille, whom he didn't want to provoke for the time being; it was another voice he didn't want to hear.

Mshifisu!

Lyon turned around abruptly and found a short, slender, dark figure standing quietly at the end of the street. The figure's chin was covered, and a pair of beautiful, agate-like eyes were staring intently at him, with a subtle smile in the corner of the eye.

Out of the corner of my eye, I could see a magician in a silver-white suit, looking exceptionally neat, floating above the roof on the other side. It was Moriarty.

As for Durenp, the other curser from the Silver Badges, I didn't see him.

Because of the battle between adventurers ahead, pedestrians on both sides of the street were running away.

Only Leon and M'hifisu, holding Terena, stood silently like rocks beneath the tide, facing each other.

Lyon hadn't expected that after only two battles, M'shifisu not only remembered him but had also clearly investigated his appearance.

Could it be that they failed to assassinate Ophie Marceau and are now planning to attack themselves?

If they had been paying attention, they would have definitely noticed my intimate interaction with Ophie Marceau last time.

"What a coincidence to run into two people swaggering around here. Aren't you afraid of being discovered by the capital's garrison and never being able to escape? You must have a bounty of several thousand gold coins on your head, right?"

"A mere reward is nothing."

Moriarty, riding on his wand, floated lightly down from the rooftop.

"I originally went to your house to look for you, but I came back empty-handed and was really disappointed. But I didn't expect to see you here. This is a real surprise."

"I am merely a third-tier cultivator. I wonder why two experts from the Silver Badge Group would come specifically to find me?"

Lyon remained calm and composed.

He didn't run immediately because M'shifisu was very agile, and his skills and experience were far superior to the half-baked Kerkechi.

Therefore, he cannot run ahead of time; if he does, he will be intercepted by Mshifisu.

“Of course, we have a big deal to discuss. How about it, would you like to come with us? Leon Belon.”

"What if I refuse?"

"Then I'm sorry, we'll have to break your legs and take you away first."

Mshifisu drew his sword lightly from behind him, seemingly ready to strike at any moment.

Terena witnessed this scene and knew that things were very dangerous. She didn't say anything, but her eyes darted around as she quickly racked her brains to think of how to help Leon.

"Heh, I'd like to see if you have the ability to do it."

Lyon took light steps and began to walk slowly.

Chapter 286 Flash Showdown

M'shifisu kept waiting for Leon to appear, but Leon just kept moving around.

She spoke casually, but she didn't underestimate Leon.

"What, aren't you going to use your most proficient phantom-like movement combat technique?"

Mshifisu, wielding a fifth-tier magic sword, slowly approached.

"Your Excellency is joking. This is the capital, my territory. Do you think I'm afraid of outsiders like you?"

Lyon slowly walked to the side of the street and responded with a smile.

"Heh, how do you know we don't have any operations in the capital?"

Moriarty smiled faintly. He didn't rush to cast a spell. He leaned against a pillar and waited casually for the duel between Leon and M'shifisu.

There's already a group of adventurers causing trouble here. If he suddenly casts a spell, it will definitely create new variables.

Here, we'll wait for M'shfisu to make his move, and then he can use the trap magic he set up in advance to take care of things.

In the crowd, the distance between Leon and Msifisu grew ever closer.

As he approached, a hint of doubt flashed in Mshifi Sulingli's eyes.

This guy never appeared.

How could he remain so calm?

While the speed of teleportation is indeed very fast, the control of distance and timing is crucial; if you teleport prematurely, you will miss the opportunity.

Especially for skilled players whose flash speed has reached a certain level, the difference in flash speed over short distances is not significant.

It's like shooting two arrows at the same time, one fast and one slow. But it's not easy for the fast one to hit the slow one without any prediction.

If she teleports there in advance, Leon will definitely have the opportunity to teleport to another location, which will make it take her a while to play hide-and-seek.

Therefore, what M'Shifisu was waiting for was to judge Leon's landing point the instant he flashed, so as to strike first and intercept him with lightning speed the moment he landed and could not quickly make another flash.

This is also the most efficient method.

Now that Lyon has chosen to walk slowly, it doesn't meet her expectations.

This guy knows exactly what I'm capable of and what I'm thinking.

This thought involuntarily arose in Mshifisu's mind.

Msifisu and Leon met twice. The first time, she noticed Leon's gaze on her outside Ophimaso's camp. She intended to use her fifth-level combat skill, Gale, to deal with this person who might expose her location.

He blocked the fifth-level combat technique, but the impact only knocked him into Ophimaso's tent, and it didn't seem to cause any real damage.

Although this move is mainly focused on pursuit, it is still a very powerful technique.

A man who clearly doesn't seem to be of high rank can not only anticipate his counter-tracking and escape in advance, but also withstand his fifth-rank combat skill without serious damage.

From this, she realized that although this person was of low rank, he was a master.

In a fleeting glance, she remembered Leon's face.

Well, it's a face that's quite rare among humans.

The second encounter occurred on the main road of the 41st floor. At that time, they were about to complete their assassination mission against Ophimosa when this person suddenly interfered, using a powerful and fast intermediate fire magic to intercept Moriarty, a great master, for a period of time. This allowed Ophimosa to quickly recover her strength, causing them to fail.

At that time, one could also see this person interacting intimately with Ophie Marceau.

Thus, the Silver Badges realized that perhaps they could lure Ophimazo out of this silver-haired magician and complete their mission again.

M'shifisu also sensed that this person's incredibly fast intermediate magic might be quite a disadvantage against his agility.

That's why she was so cautious this time.

However, there's nothing we can do if we just keep waiting.

"We can't wait for him any longer. If we wait for the capital's garrison to arrive, it will still be a waste of time. Since that's the case..."

She narrowed her eyes and suddenly flashed away when Lyon was about five meters away from the corner of the wall!

call out!!!!

She appeared beside Leon with incredible speed.

At the same time, Leon, noticing that M'shifisu had begun to appear, also suddenly transformed into a shadow, rapidly moving across the ground and flashing towards the outside of the street.

He immediately unleashed the fifth-level Instant Shadow Step, which he had just mastered!

Destination: Granny's Mansion!

This is the closest position among his allies.

There are several skilled fighters there, such as Machiruilis Hamra. With their help, things will definitely be much easier.

As for Berylita and Ophimaso, they were located further away. Although they had more power, they were clearly unable to help those in need.

Even if his strength has now progressed to the point where he is confident he can fight against a master like Mshifisu, he would not rashly make a move here; the risk is too great.

call out!!!!!

M'shifisu had anticipated the outcome of his first flash chase and immediately gave chase in a split second.

In the next instant, he blocked Leon's path and raised his sword to stab the shadow on the ground.

The shadows roamed again, bypassing her figure and continuing to wander.

"The duration of a single phantom transformation can actually exceed 5 seconds!"

Mshifisu's expression changed slightly.

According to her estimation, Leon's base speed was slightly faster than half of hers, but with the added benefit of the Shadow skill, he could quickly and significantly reduce the agility gap with her by virtue of the Shadow's concealment and flexibility.

In addition, this person's reaction speed far exceeded his movement speed, so much so that M'shifisu instantly realized that he might not even be able to catch him in a game of hide-and-seek.

After flashing and chasing each other seven or eight times, the two had already swum to the next street.

A gentle breeze emanated from Moriarty as he rose into the sky, maintaining an upright posture, looking down and observing the two below.

"Moriati, bomb!"

During the chase, Mshifisu shouted.

"Huh? With your agility being almost three times the limit, you still can't stop him?"

"Enough with the nonsense, this terrain isn't suitable for me!"

This is also the truth from Mshifisu.

Leon's ability to blend into shadows on the street makes him difficult to spot.
